The Lord has heard my voice

1
I love Yahweh because he hears my voice and my pleas for mercy.
2
Because he listened to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
3
The cords of death surrounded me, and the snares of Sheol confronted me; I felt anguish and sorrow.
4
Then I called on the name of Yahweh: “Please Yahweh, rescue my life.”
5
Yahweh is merciful and fair; our God is compassionate.
6
Yahweh protects the naive; I was brought low, and he saved me.
7
My soul can return to its resting place, for Yahweh has been good to me.
8
For you rescued my life from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from stumbling.
9
I will serve Yahweh in the land of the living.
10
I believed in him, even when I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”
11
I rashly said, “All men are liars.”
12
How can I repay Yahweh for all his kindnesses to me?
13
I will raise the cup of salvation, and call on the name of Yahweh.
14
I will fulfill my vows to Yahweh in the presence of all his people.
15
Precious in the sight of Yahweh is the death of his saints.
16
Yahweh, indeed, I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your servant woman; you have taken away my bonds.
17
I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving and will call on the name of Yahweh.
18
I will fulfill my vows to Yahweh in the presence of all his people,
19
in the courts of Yahweh’s house, in your midst, Jerusalem. Praise Yahweh.

The Lord has heard my voice

1
I love the LORD, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy.
2
Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
3
The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol (a) got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow.
4
Then I called on the LORD’s name:LORD, I beg you, deliver my soul.”
5
The LORD is gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful.
6
The LORD preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.
7
Return to your rest, my soul, for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.
8
For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9
I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10
I believed, therefore I said,I was greatly afflicted.”
11
I said in my haste,All people are liars.”
12
What will I give to the LORD for all his benefits toward me?
13
I will take the cup of salvation, and call on the LORD’s name.
14
I will pay my vows to the LORD, yes, in the presence of all his people.
15
Precious in the LORD’s sight is the death of his saints.
16
LORD, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your servant girl. You have freed me from my chains.
17
I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on the LORD’s name.
18
I will pay my vows to the LORD, yes, in the presence of all his people,
19
in the courts of the LORD’s house, in the middle of you, Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
